Soon, Princess Shirayuki brought out a bowl of soup.

The soup contained kelp, mushrooms, tofu, and some meats that Yin Zhu couldn't recognize, topped with a layer of chopped scallions and minced meat. But none of that mattered; in the ghost realm, having anything to eat was already a blessing, especially since this was a secluded mountain village.

Yin Zhu tasted a little of the soup; it was quite delicious, with a light flavor and a lingering aftertaste.

The warm soup, in particular, made her feel much warmer, her whole body warming up. It instantly dispelled the chill she had felt in the snow.

If it weren't for the overwhelming urge to leave and find the cat demon, Yin Zhu would have wanted to stay here.

After finishing half a bowl of soup, Yin Zhu looked up at Bai Xueji, who was continuing to serve dishes, and suddenly asked, "Pretty sister, besides me, are there any outsiders in your village?"

"No, very few people come in."

Princess Shirayuki shook her head and looked at the scene outside the house—the villagers of Snow Mountain Village lived in peace and contentment, each with their own job, busy and happy.

"Did you see a big cat?" Yin Zhu gestured. "It was about the size of an elephant!"

"Are you kidding me? How can there be such a big cat?" Bai Xueji was amused by Yin Zhu's actions and laughed exaggeratedly, making the phrase "shaking like a flower" involuntarily pop into Yin Zhu's mind.

Yin Zhu said earnestly, "Yes, she is my most respected Cat Goddess. If you see her, you must tell her that I am looking for her."

The cat provided food and drink for Yin Zhu, so it truly deserved that title.

This isn't just a provider of food and clothing; this is a living bodhisattva. Cat took in a homeless little demon, cared for her, and protected her. Even if the mountain god of this world thinks that Cat has killed people and has a dirty soul, in Yin Zhu's heart, Cat is the true cat god of animals because he harmed those noble humans who enjoy hunting in order to protect animals.

Snow White was taken aback by her overly serious expression.

Yin Zhu controlled the pace of the conversation. She smiled sweetly and pointed to her face, saying, "Pretty sister, didn't you promise to do my makeup?"

Bai Xueji then remembered what she had said earlier, and took out some of her red powder, which was stored in a delicate little box. She applied the powder to Yin Zhu's lips, then took out a mirror to show Yin Zhu: "Look, doesn't it make you look much more energetic after applying a little?"

Previously, in the snow, Yin Zhu's lips had indeed turned a bit pale due to the cold environment. Now, after applying the homemade lipstick made by the villagers of the snow mountain, she looked much more vibrant.

Yin Zhu smiled and flattered him a few times, then began to praise how delicious the soup was.

Princess Shirayuki was very proud of her cooking skills: "Although it may sound a bit exaggerated, everyone in the village says that my soup is the best. I will definitely be an excellent housewife in the future."

"Yes, yes, I wonder who is so lucky to marry such a beautiful older sister."

Yin Zhu knew that Bai Xueji wanted to hear this.

From Yin Zhu's perspective, she certainly doesn't think being a housewife is a particularly admirable ideal. However, in Japan, it is indeed a profession. Different national conditions mean that we cannot force everyone to share the same values.

Hearing Yin Zhu's praise, Bai Xueji smiled even more happily and hurriedly shared with her how she made soup, including the cooking steps and ingredients, as if she knew them by heart.

Feeling that she had heard enough, Yin Zhu stood up and bowed to Bai Xueji in gratitude: "Beautiful sister, thank you for taking care of me during this time. I still need to continue searching for Lord Cat God, so I'm afraid I must part ways with you now."

Princess Shirayuki was somewhat disappointed, but she still didn't stop her: "Then I wish you success in achieving your wish."

Yin Zhu nodded, then, feeling his way out of the house, continued in the same direction as before, passing through Snow Mountain Village and heading towards the endless snowfield that seemed to stretch on forever, all under the watchful gaze of Snow Princess, whose pupils dilated in shock.

Unbeknownst to Yin Zhu, as she left the village, Bai Xueji was looking at her with a complicated expression.

2. When traversing snow, you cannot turn back; you can only keep moving forward. Your footprints will be covered by the wind and snow, your sense of direction will be confused, and you will get lost in the endless snowfield.

Princess Shirayuki invites anyone who enters to become a guest in her home, and Princess Shirayuki's home has only one door.

Her kitchen is located with its back to the dining table.

In other words, polite guests will usually turn around when the host serves the food to see the host off, which violates the Snow Woman's rules. Even if they do not violate the rules at this time, when they want to leave and go out, they must turn around, which also makes it easy for them to turn around.

As a result, Yin Zhu simply moved in and moved out.

Even if the textual traps of this level are combined with the context to create some confusion, they are not too difficult to identify. For Yin Zhu, they pose no challenge whatsoever. She even believes that most viewers in front of the live stream would be able to realize them.

Yin Zhu squinted, mechanically moving her legs while her mind raced, trying to figure out how to leave the area.

The snow fell even heavier.

Previously, when walking in the snow, the snow only reached Yin Zhu's calves, but now, after leaving Xueshan Village, the snow has reached her knees.

With each step sinking deep into the snow, Yin Zhu felt the resistance to moving forward growing stronger.

Moreover, Yin Zhu's intuition told her that this instance was definitely not that simple. The Snow Woman was a powerful demon, and a very dangerous one at that. She only had seven rules, yet she could kill many ghosts and monsters. Something was definitely amiss.
